Yep, things seem normal now…

*I wanted to update last night, but apparently being back in the swing of things also means running out of time for certain things on some days. By the time I sat down to update, the internet was giving me fits and I was too tired to deal with it.

Finn is back at school with Mia, which means I'm able to work from my office (incredible how much easier that is!) and we're all trying to find what it means to have the old routine back.

His skin is still a bit spotty but it's definitely healing, which is comforting.  When we got back to school, there was an information sheet on Hand, Foot, and Mouth in each kid's cubby.  In the symptoms it said: "5 or fewer blisters per hand or foot"  YEAH, RIGHT. I laughed. Because what else can you do when your kid has 100+ spots on his body? I didn't count and I know it's easy to be dramatic. I don't think I'm far off this time...

But how do I really know that we're [fairly] back to normal? Finn fell on the playground again and bonked his head. Identical way he did it last time - some kind of issue with the popcorn popper - and identical result to his forehead - maybe a little less intense this time - but on the other side, to even things out.  'Cause you know, he didn't have enough red marks on his body already... Gotta love boys who are intense and play hard.
